Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 2120980, member: 2117"] Going into the game I was rooting for Baylor since I think they have a better chance to upset Connecticut, but I am so so happy for Mississippi State. Watching Schaefer interact with his players is heartwarming and he has done a heck of a job with a lot of players who weren't highly recruited. Compared to Baylor's bench where Kim was screaming at her players all night and honestly just seemed like a nightmare today. She audibly screamed, "KRISTIE!!" After a Wallace turnover....and then glared at Prince and mouthed, "do you want to sit?" And then subbed her out. I'm sure Kim being in her ear all night did not help Wallace out one bit and caused her to play uptight. You definitely got the sense that Mississippi State was playing for each other (and their coach) where the chemistry and camaraderie wasn't the same on Baylor's side of the ball. This marks 5 years in the row with no Final Four for Baylor when they've had: 2013: Griner and Sims 2014: Sims, Johnson and Davis 2015: Davis and Johnson 2016: Jones, Brown, Davis and Johnson 2017: Jones, Brown and Davis She can recruit and man top kids from Texas, but it's evident that she doesn't foster the same environment that many other top programs do. I hope many recruits watched tonight's game and saw the post game interview with Schaefer/William. Mississippi State could be the class of the SEC for years to come. [/QUOTE]
